Burger House — Restaurant in Bryan

DON'T JUDGE A RESTAURANT BY ITS COVER. The exterior of the Burger House is a bit worn down looking, but looks are deceiving because their food was delicious. I ordered the bulgogi burger (thinly shaved pieces of meat marinated in a teriyaki sauce with Korean spices) and it was really good! My husband ordered a bacon burger and liked it (4/5 stars in his book). My husband and I shared the tater tots which were so crispy and delicious, but a tad bit on the oily side-- but nothing that bothered us too much. Each burger comes with just the meat and bun and then you add your topping from the topping bar (lettuce, onions, tomato, pickles, sauces, etc.).

They make their buns from scratch right there in the kitchen and they are soft & pillowy. The fixins bar has shredded AND leaf lettuce, jalapenos, and everything you could want. If you haven't tried it yet, you MUST try the "Bulgogi" Burger! It's apparently some sort of Korean "Barbecue" but it does not have that tomato-y flavor. Fabulous. It's been operated by the same Korean family for as long as I can remember, and Jason at the front counter will ring you up and greet you with a flourish! Tell 'em...
